Overview

This document explains the features of the PLX32-EIP-MBTCP-UA. It guides you
through configuration, showing how to map data between a device or network,
through the gateway, to a PLC or PAC. The ProSoft Configuration Builder
software creates files to import into the PLC or PAC programming software,
integrating the gateway into your system. You can also map data between areas
in the gateway's internal database. This allows you to copy data to different
addresses within the gateway database in order to create easier data requests
and control.
The PLX32-EIP-MBTCP-UA is a stand-alone DIN-rail mounted unit that provides
two Ethernet ports for communications, remote configuration, and diagnostics.
The gateway has an SD Card slot (SD card optional) that allows you to store
configuration files that you can use for recovery, transferring the configuration to
another gateway, or general configuration backup.
